Crew
Steve Wolf Chief Scientist, USGS Menlo Park
Willie Burnham Scientist, USGS Water Resources
Equipment Used
uniboom
Purpose
To evaluate the marine geology offshore of the city of Kahului, Maui,
Hawaii.
Information to be Derived
Seismic reflection profiles.
Summary
The geophysical method of continuous seismic profiling was used.
An EG and G uniboom system was used aboard a small diving boat for the
operation. The system was operated at 1/4 second firing rate on a 1/4
second sweep at a power output of 200-400 joules. This system in practice
gives resolution of geologic units on the order of the 1-3 feet to
penetrable depths of 100-300 feet below the sea floor.
Got Help? For B-1-76-HW, we would appreciate any information on -- contract, days at sea, dive count, funding, information specialist, kms of navigation, national plan, NGDC Info, notes, owner, ports, project, project number, publications, scanned materials, seismic description, station count, station description, submersible, tabulated info.
